Partial Diagnosis

Well, we finally have a partial diagnosis on Rickey. The doctors say that part of his intestine is being squished by two of his arteries. I don't understand it all cause I don't know doctor lingo, but I do understand that it could be the source of his pain. The doctor at the U decided he was going to put in a feeding tube. Rickey went in tuesday for "surgery" and the feeding tube was placed. They say he has to have it in for a month or so and hopefully it'll help him gain back some of the weight he lost and give him the nutrition he needs. poor guy. I'll try to keep everyone updated.
